Generate Dimensions By Box

Generate Dimensions by Box

Generate Dimensions by Box extracts and displays the main overall dimensions of the selected objects by using their combined bounding box. It provides the width, length, and height of the selection, regardless of the type of jewel or object.

It’s especially useful when you need to quickly understand the size of a piece for presentation, packaging, or volume estimation, without requiring specific structural data.

Steps

  1. Select the objects to dimension (press Enter to confirm a pre-selection).
  2. Set the command-line options if needed, then confirm.

Command-line options

Offset: Distance between the geometry and the dimension lines. Default is 2, adjustable from 0 to 100.

Box: When set to Yes, also adds the bounding box as a solid to the document. Default is No.
